FIGHT FOLLOWS
TELEPHONE TALK
R. W. Barnwell Says Paul
Norcross Clubbed Him in
Office,
Haul H Norcross. h'drauHc and civil
engineer, charged before Recorder
Broyles this afternoon that R. W
Barnwell, a real estate sates man
ager, had entered the offices of the
Solomon - Norcross fompany in the
Candler building yesterday afternoon
and attacked him with a club. He de
clares he believes Barnw ell came tn his
office with the intention of killing him,
and charges assault with intent to
commit murder.
Mr. Norcross has employed Phillips
McDuffie as counsel and the mat
ter will be cawied to the higher courts.
, Norcross' Statement.
In a statement to a report, Norcross
said.
1 was sitting at my desk dictating a
letter to my stenographer, when Barn
well entered the door. I invited him in
and asked him to be seated while I fin
ished the letter.
Norcross Was Hit Hard.
"As I turned mv back to him and
continued my letter, Barnwell struck
me across the head with this heavy
stick. You can see by the splintered
stick and by the cut in the back of my
head that it was a terrible-blow.
"As I turned toward him after the
first blow he struck me two quick blows
with the same stick, the blows falling
on either side of my head. They left
marks also, as you see,
"I clinched with him and took the
stick from him, threw him to the floor,
and. after taking several punches at his
face, let him up. As soon as he was on
his feet again he began hurling any
thing he could get his hands on at my
head. There is no telling what would
have occurred had he had a pistol or
knife.
"By that time several men hart gath
ered at my office door and some of them
grabbed Barnwell and carried him from
the room. I went immediately to a
physician in a nearby office and had the
wound on the back of my head dressed.
Angered at Phone Talk.
"I have learned since Barnwell’s as
sault on me that he became angered
over a telephone conversation. Ho has
told some one that 1 called him a thief
over the phone. SJuch is not the case.
I spoke to him about an account his
firm owed ours and shortly after I hung
up the telephone he entered the room
and began the assault."
The prominence of the parties in the
case caused quite a crowd to gather at
the hearing before Judge Broyles. Nor
cross is one of the most prominent en
gineers in Georgia, secretary of the
Georgia Conservation association and
prominent socially. Barnwell is man
ager of a largo realty concern and has
put through many big deals.

1 What Car Would You Buy? MS
The time has passed when automobiles can be sold to you on
their appearances or claims. This is a day when you and every KgJ*
&F 3 purchaser must be shown what the car for which you pay your
/'aS money will actually perform; what it will do. Beware of an
£**2 automobile salesrrtan who attempts to beguile you with a
pleasing story. Tell him to show the goods and prove to you
that his cars are worth the money. Find out whether his car UA
is a real car or only an assembled automobile built to sell.
You have a right to your money's worth, but it is up to you
to see that you get it. Deeper than all appearances, there
are a few expert tests which ought to be applied to every car.
Who makes the car? Is it an assembled car or made from top /i
J to bottom by one manufacturer? What kind of a guarantee fl
is on it? Does the manufacturer respect his own product
with a real guarantee, or does he want you to take the chance?
X’l What do parts cost you and how conveniently can you get
them? How many cars of- this make arc in service and how
many are giving satisfaction ? Questions like these go deep into ,n
the heart of the case, and if you put them rigorously upon W
any car you will find out with a certainty whether or not that
year is worth its price.
We are selling Studebaker E-M F “30” and Flanders “20”
because we know that, dollar for dollar, their equal is not
sold in the market today. The records of many thousands of dFs
cars in all kinds of service have convinced us absolutely.
Studebaker E-M-F “30” and Flanders “20” cars are built to
run. and because they run they sell. If we cannot prove to fekl
you under the most searching test that Studebaker cars are
absolutely the best automobile values in the market, we do
AtfAy. not want your business; but we can prove it. and your
neighbors who drive these cars will tell you the same thing. .
Be an expert when it comes to buying a car. You can. by
getting from us some further ideas on real tests of an
automobile. Clip the attached coupon and send it to
us now because we have something new to tell you
